Accessibility and Cost of Living Survey
Posted in General News on Wednesday, September 20th, 2023
Disabled people are being encouraged to have their say on disabled access and the cost of living crisis by completing the Euan's Guide Access Survey Supported by Motability Operations. The 2023 survey went live on Friday 15 September, launching in association with Motability Operations at The Big Event in Edinburgh.
Euan’s Guide is asking anyone who has ever had to consider accessibility to share their opinions by taking the UK’s largest survey. This is the ninth survey and covers topics such as accessible toilets, parking and general access as well as the cost of living crisis for the second year.
The data gathered from the Access Survey informs Euan’s Guide in their mission to improve accessibility, and the insights from the survey help to shape the charity’s work around amplifying the voices and experiences of disabled people. Last year’s survey included the opinions of over 7,500 people, 98% of whom identified as a disabled person. This year, the Euan’s Guide team hopes to break the record number of responses. Founder of Euan’s Guide, Euan MacDonald said: “Our Access Survey is extremely important in establishing how disabled people, their families, friends and carers feel about disabled access through their own lived experiences, and how the cost of living crisis is disproportionately affecting disabled people. We’re delighted to be working with Motability Operations for a third year to amplify the voices and experiences of disabled people. It’s vital that anyone who has had to consider disabled access makes their voice heard by taking our Access Survey, so we can work together to make a difference.”
